It is very much to be wished, for the benefit of bashful men, that society would come to some general agreement upon the subjeot of compliments, At present, the Whole social law upon the subject is in a state of qoqfusion whjch is a mere pitfal) for the unwary. There are some occasions when a compliment is very little lesa than an insult; and there aro othors when it ia scarcely lesa insulting to omit the compliment j and the distinction in principle between the two sets of occasions is very obvious. To Qompliment a lady on her dress is a rude familiarity. A panegyritj upon her beauty is only tolerated if she belongs to the emaciated sisterhood of " fast fjifls," and is apt to be resented even then if there are many listeners to overhear it. But seat her at a piano-forte, and everything is changed. Compliments [cease to be rude on one side, or repulsive on the other. The man who would piand at the piano-fort listening to a song, and omit at tho end of it to ejaculate " Beautiful!" would be condemned by every right-thinking mind as unworthy the name of a man and an American. Compliments on suoh occasions are not simply permissible, but they are exacted with riger as an item of the ordinary tribute of civility which man owes to woman You might as well 1st a lady stand for want of a chair while yon are sitting down, as to allow the music to languish for want of a plentiful supply of eulogy. And the young lady, who would blush and bridle if she was told she was pretty, submits with smiling impassibility to the most fulsome flattery on the subjeot of her singing. In fact, if the song did not close amid a chorus of admiration, .every one would feel that there was an awki ward silence. People would force conversation fitfully ana uneasily, as if somebody had uttered a startling impropriety; and the performer would be perfectly justified in flouncing away from the pianoforte, and passing the rest of the evening in the dumps. The idea appears to bo that a publio performance is incompatible with retiring modesty. It is a proclamation that the young lady is not satisfied to remain unnotioed in the thong, but wishes to attract a speoial share of general atren* tion to herself; and it naturally follows that she desires some assurance that her efforts havo not been in vain. The world is too good naturcd to refuse compliments to any one who professedly caters for them; and fortunately, there arc peoplo who derive a positive pleasure from the aot of flattoring others. Their souls arc a living well of butter, and a little of it escapes upon every passer by. Probably they began the praotioe from calculation, to secure as many friends as possible at a cheap cost; but the habit soon grows upon them, and olings to them long after the hope of getting on in the world has lost its power.— They are very disagreeable peoplo to meet in sooiety, upon ordinary occasions, for they are always putting somebody out of countenance j but their real mission in the world is to attend at musical parties. They should be jammed in between the pianoforte and the wall and left there. So placed, they are in position to perform services which, in their absence, it would be impossible to supply; for contemplating does not come by nature, and the master of ■the bouse who should try it for the first time, in ignorance of the difficulties of the attempt, and without proper preperation, is very liable to come to an unseemly halt in the very middle of his pretty speech.

Tiie Way We Intend to Do It.—After mature deliberation—at least on deliberation ought to be mature, for we have been engaged in maturing thorn for about three years—we have determined to become rich, not suddenly rich, but slowly and surely to build up our pecuniary fortunes till we grow in wealth to the huge propor, tion of a millionaire. In the first place we shall borrow and invest fifty cents in candies, cakes and aples, purchase an •mptj whiskey barrel for a stand and rent a space on the sidewalk fore a store. Here will wC remain late and early, till we shall havi disposed of our stock in trade for doubli its value. Then we will increase the stocl and double our sales and wfren we get 8ft; dollars, we will rent a small shanty 01 Main street aud fill it with a variety of ar tides of every description, too numerous t( mention—and advertise them in the Gazette We shall then stop siooking cigars, chewin; tobacco, drinking sherry cobblers, and be come as mean a cus as possible. In ever imaginable manner we will cheat,wrong anC defraud our customers, lie, swindle and stea —make money, and buy bank stock, inceasi our circle of business and usefulness, taki a big store on Main street, and get a largC stock ol goods principally on credit. Hin a number of clerks, make them work nigh and day, give them nothing, and allov them the inestimable privilege of payinj their own board bills. Having invest ed heavily in bank stock, we will use ou: influence to bo elected President ofaBanl and also of a railroad company. We will lend money, and take mortgagei on property, forcolose tbo mortgages, bu; in the property ourselves, and thus becomi the owner of oountless acres of real estate Having accomplished all this, and grown ti be worth twenty-five millions of ii money, lands and tenements, gooas, chat ties and green backs, we shall look arounc us for a wife—with that amount of cash i won't be hard to find one—but she mui be a money-making woman. After getting married, we intend to live 20 years, anc raise 20 children, and each year will in creaso our fortune 20 millions. Having reached the age of 100 years, we shall dii I with a pocket full of rocks, and withou making a will. It will be mighty pleasun I after death, to see what sport tho lawycri and judges will have settling up the estnto At the age of thirty most of our childret will die in abject poverty, as by that timC tho lawyers will havo exhausted the entin estate. However, the fore knowledge o: this fact shall not prevent us oarrying iDitc cfFect our daring project. Wo shall ge rich, and be miserable that we may be ricl —be mean, that wo may be a millionaire This is the way all millionaire get to be rich and why should not we follow their ex ample? Money is power—and wo intern to possess that power, if we oan find thC capital to oommenee. If anybody desire to see a man make himself rich, just let hin lend us 50 cents capital.

I will buy my owil sword. Should you do it, and should it come to disgrace in these hands, you could but regret the gift; or should I accept it from you, and somo day find it my imperative duty to kick Bome of the doners out of this company, it might be unpleasant to think that I was under obligation to that person as a contributor to the elegant sword found. For these reasons I must firmly and kindly decline the favor which your loyal and kind hoarts prompt you td bestow. Wait until the war is over; wait until the tide of battle shallkave been stayed—till the raging billows of (Jie cursed rebellion shall have been rojlrfd back; wait until I have proved myself worthy of so noble a gift—until you have shown yourselves by deeds of daring and feats of bravery worthy to bestow it upon me—then perchance I may be happy to accept at your hand some lasting testimonial of your confidence and esteem.

It is very much to be wished, for the benefit of bashful men, that society would come to some general agreement upon the subjeot of compliments, At present, the Whole social law upon the subject is in a state of qoqfusion whjch is a mere pitfal) for the unwary. There are some occasions when a compliment is very little lesa than an insult; and there aro othors when it ia scarcely lesa insulting to omit the compliment j and the distinction in principle between the two sets of occasions is very obvious. To Qompliment a lady on her dress is a rude familiarity. A panegyritj upon her beauty is only tolerated if she belongs to the emaciated sisterhood of " fast fjifls," and is apt to be resented even then if there are many listeners to overhear it. But seat her at a piano-forte, and everything is changed. Compliments [cease to be rude on one side, or repulsive on the other. The man who would piand at the piano-fort listening to a song, and omit at tho end of it to ejaculate " Beautiful!" would be condemned by every right-thinking mind as unworthy the name of a man and an American. Compliments on suoh occasions are not simply permissible, but they are exacted with riger as an item of the ordinary tribute of civility which man owes to woman You might as well 1st a lady stand for want of a chair while yon are sitting down, as to allow the music to languish for want of a plentiful supply of eulogy. And the young lady, who would blush and bridle if she was told she was pretty, submits with smiling impassibility to the most fulsome flattery on the subjeot of her singing. In fact, if the song did not close amid a chorus of admiration, .every one would feel that there was an awki ward silence. People would force conversation fitfully ana uneasily, as if somebody had uttered a startling impropriety; and the performer would be perfectly justified in flouncing away from the pianoforte, and passing the rest of the evening in the dumps. The idea appears to bo that a publio performance is incompatible with retiring modesty. It is a proclamation that the young lady is not satisfied to remain unnotioed in the thong, but wishes to attract a speoial share of general atren* tion to herself; and it naturally follows that she desires some assurance that her efforts havo not been in vain. The world is too good naturcd to refuse compliments to any one who professedly caters for them; and fortunately, there arc peoplo who derive a positive pleasure from the aot of flattoring others. Their souls arc a living well of butter, and a little of it escapes upon every passer by. Probably they began the praotioe from calculation, to secure as many friends as possible at a cheap cost; but the habit soon grows upon them, and olings to them long after the hope of getting on in the world has lost its power.— They are very disagreeable peoplo to meet in sooiety, upon ordinary occasions, for they are always putting somebody out of countenance j but their real mission in the world is to attend at musical parties. They should be jammed in between the pianoforte and the wall and left there. So placed, they are in position to perform services which, in their absence, it would be impossible to supply; for contemplating does not come by nature, and the master of ■the bouse who should try it for the first time, in ignorance of the difficulties of the attempt, and without proper preperation, is very liable to come to an unseemly halt in the very middle of his pretty speech.

Tiie Way We Intend to Do It.—After mature deliberation—at least on deliberation ought to be mature, for we have been engaged in maturing thorn for about three years—we have determined to become rich, not suddenly rich, but slowly and surely to build up our pecuniary fortunes till we grow in wealth to the huge propor, tion of a millionaire. In the first place we shall borrow and invest fifty cents in candies, cakes and aples, purchase an •mptj whiskey barrel for a stand and rent a space on the sidewalk fore a store. Here will wC remain late and early, till we shall havi disposed of our stock in trade for doubli its value. Then we will increase the stocl and double our sales and wfren we get 8ft; dollars, we will rent a small shanty 01 Main street aud fill it with a variety of ar tides of every description, too numerous t( mention—and advertise them in the Gazette We shall then stop siooking cigars, chewin; tobacco, drinking sherry cobblers, and be come as mean a cus as possible. In ever imaginable manner we will cheat,wrong anC defraud our customers, lie, swindle and stea —make money, and buy bank stock, inceasi our circle of business and usefulness, taki a big store on Main street, and get a largC stock ol goods principally on credit. Hin a number of clerks, make them work nigh and day, give them nothing, and allov them the inestimable privilege of payinj their own board bills. Having invest ed heavily in bank stock, we will use ou: influence to bo elected President ofaBanl and also of a railroad company. We will lend money, and take mortgagei on property, forcolose tbo mortgages, bu; in the property ourselves, and thus becomi the owner of oountless acres of real estate Having accomplished all this, and grown ti be worth twenty-five millions of ii money, lands and tenements, gooas, chat ties and green backs, we shall look arounc us for a wife—with that amount of cash i won't be hard to find one—but she mui be a money-making woman. After getting married, we intend to live 20 years, anc raise 20 children, and each year will in creaso our fortune 20 millions. Having reached the age of 100 years, we shall dii I with a pocket full of rocks, and withou making a will. It will be mighty pleasun I after death, to see what sport tho lawycri and judges will have settling up the estnto At the age of thirty most of our childret will die in abject poverty, as by that timC tho lawyers will havo exhausted the entin estate. However, the fore knowledge o: this fact shall not prevent us oarrying iDitc cfFect our daring project. Wo shall ge rich, and be miserable that we may be ricl —be mean, that wo may be a millionaire This is the way all millionaire get to be rich and why should not we follow their ex ample? Money is power—and wo intern to possess that power, if we oan find thC capital to oommenee. If anybody desire to see a man make himself rich, just let hin lend us 50 cents capital.

I will buy my owil sword. Should you do it, and should it come to disgrace in these hands, you could but regret the gift; or should I accept it from you, and somo day find it my imperative duty to kick Bome of the doners out of this company, it might be unpleasant to think that I was under obligation to that person as a contributor to the elegant sword found. For these reasons I must firmly and kindly decline the favor which your loyal and kind hoarts prompt you td bestow. Wait until the war is over; wait until the tide of battle shallkave been stayed—till the raging billows of (Jie cursed rebellion shall have been rojlrfd back; wait until I have proved myself worthy of so noble a gift—until you have shown yourselves by deeds of daring and feats of bravery worthy to bestow it upon me—then perchance I may be happy to accept at your hand some lasting testimonial of your confidence and esteem.
